Paperback. Condición: Fair. The Roman empire was a success story.

Their activities involved active treason, latent disaffection, brigandage, organized protest and cultural deviation.

Deviants and deviations throw into relief the Empire's success in the face of alternatives and explain how the Roman way of life slowly changed in its central manifestations. Most prominent in the empire's beginnings were the opponents of its new form of government: monarchy. In addition to persons desiring a different, less oppressive government, there were philosophers and preachers proclaiming old wisdom that would serve the purpose of disaffection, even of revolution. …
